We partnered with Tatum, DEPO Ventures and Purple Ventures to launch the Tatum Blockchain Accelerator, Powered by StartupYard, an initiative designed to support early-stage blockchain startups and help them navigate the complex process of building a company from scratch. Our mission was simple yet ambitious: to be a business-centric, chain-agnostic accelerator that offers business support to blockchain founders who are looking to raise their first round of funding. Today, we are thrilled to share the progress weve made and the impact weve had on the blockchain startup ecosystem. Global Reach  We have been thrilled to receive an overwhelming response to the program, with 200 applications from 57 countries. The global reach of the applications testifies to the universal appeal and potential of blockchain technology. Top 20 countries in percentage of applications The majority of applications came from Europe, followed by Asia, North America, Africa, South America, and Oceania. The broad range of sectors that the applicants represent also stands testament to the versatile applications of blockchain technology. Leading the way were startups from the fintech sector (33 applications), followed by gaming (23), media and trading (17 each), and development (16). We also received applications from startups in the e-commerce, wallet, art, travel, mining, green tech, security, real estate, legal, sport, e-learning, supply chain, telco, fashion, intellectual property, virtual reality, NGO, logistics, data, RegTech, and services sectors. Selective Process, High Potential Of the 200 applications, we interviewed 38 startups, representing 19% of the total applications. The interviews were rigorous and aimed at identifying the most promising startups that could benefit the most from our program. After a careful selection process which included multiple interviews with 6 judges from StartupYard, Tatum, DEPO Ventures and Purple Ventures, we accepted six startups, which represent 16% of the interviewed startups and 3% of the total applications. These percentages are in line with our previous data from 12 years of experience reviewing and selecting startups. The 5 selected startups have been put through a rigorous program that includes personalized workshops, one-to-one business mentoring, introductions to business angels and VCs, and much more. They have benefitted from our extensive experience and access to our deep network of mentors, partners, and investors. The 6 startups we have accepted so far are Dexfin Wallet (Czechia), Insaaph Capital (South Africa), Fungies.io (Poland), InvestBay (Czechia) and CO2IN (Czechia). We have already published the interviews of the founders of Fungies and CO2IN and more are coming soon. Our commitment to these startups extends beyond the duration of the program. As StartupYard portfolio companies, they continue to receive ongoing support, helping them to reach their full potential and make a lasting impact in their respective domains. We are also delighted about the network of support behind our program, which includes leading venture capital firms in the CEE region and active business angels, providing our startups with exceptional networking and learning opportunities. Soon we also hope to be able to announce some funding rounds. Inviting the Next Generation of Innovators Looking ahead, were excited about the potential of the next cohort of startups. Were particularly interested in startups working in any crypto field and blockchain protocol, but have a preference for Ethereum Virtual Machine compatible protocols.
